Thank you for your information lady.

I think we should attempt to destroy it. We can deal with whatever evil is bound within if we research it a little bit and prepare for release of said evil. Probably not going to happen like this on the field but once we return to the south.

"What of the concern I raised regarding the book's affect on me? Perhaps it was merely the book's wards activating and affectign all of us? Is it a curse? If so, can it be lifted?"

[sblock=For DM] Using the druid speak, Jaroth continues for Lady Vera: They truly are representatives of the Light. Just like the church, they will destroy that which they do not understand rather than try to understand its nature and relationship to the world before making a reasoned decision. Enlightened, they call themselves. Bah! [/sblock]

"Nay, Vadric. If indeed the book is sentient, it should most definitely not be destroyed. It should be carefully warded and bound so that it may no longer affect the world around it. If it were to be destroyed, you risk freeing whatever vile entity is bound within and allowing it to become loose upon the world. It is far safer to deal with in its current form."

"All the more reason to destroy it," argues Vadric. "Evil like that cannot be allowed to exist. There is always the chance that weak will men will try to use it to their advantage."

Work is beating me hard, too. I having trouble keeping up with everything.

Meetings

At Bertrands statment the Lady Vera makes a soft laugh.. "Of course the other side is here after the book, they have just not shown themselves yet hoping the conflict outside will weaken you so they can take the book" then in turn addressing Jaroths she says "It was most likely the wards and protective magics constraining the book yet still it is powerful that over time it will begin to influence events in your life as well as those within a 100 mile raduis. The book is an ancient item of power have you not guessed that?"

 

[Rath Lorien]

"Lady Vera, do you know how to destroy the book?"

"Do you know how to ward the book so that it will not cause this disruptive curse?"

 

[Canaan]

Jaroth

Jaroth nods to Lady Vera. "I have guessed that. Yes. Ordinarily, I would suggest that the Order keep it hidden. But unless it's protective wards can be unraveled by one of our Order, that would clearly be folly. I have the ability to pierce many magical protections and have recently unlocked the ability to pierce innate resistance to magic. But I do not yet have the ability to unravel the very nature of a ward, separating it into its component parts, which I suspect might be required for magic of this power."

 

[Rhun]

Vadric remains tense, waiting to hear the answer to Anniston's question.

 

[Scotley]

Bertrand

"Indeed, if we are to continue to be in the presence of the book, we should do all we can to mitigate its curse." A wan look comes over his face as he adds, "I've seen enough suffering and do not willingly put myself it the path of it again."

 

[Dracomeander]

Finnian quirks an eyebrow toward the Lady as he waits to hear her response. He quietly sips some more coffee letting Vadric and Anniston carry this part of the conversation playing the diplomat and letting all sides have their voice before he interjects again.

Meetings

With a wry expression the Lady Vera responds, "No i do not know how to destroy the book though i can make several guesses as to what may work if such a course of action is decided"..continuing she adds "I fear the book has already affected you Jaroth, it has led you along dangerous paths and the discovery of new talents which should you attempt them upon the book be a ruse and instead of destryoing it actually set it free"




OCCC: Did i hear jaws dropping
